So in the last pathetic attempt to throw dirt at Guaido the Government said that they reunited with him in secret WITH COMPLETE EVIDENCE

View attachment 648841

The bulletproof evidence is just members of the goverment going out of a Hotel and supposedly this one is Guaido

View attachment 648842

Of all the pathetic excuses they could make they picked the most blatant and awful one, who in their right mind will use a hoodie in Venezuela? and one that is so obvious that was manufactured that is laughable, i mean come on...

EDIT for a update: according to Reuters there are 400 mercenaries so this is pretty much a confirmation that the army has abandoned him or he is getting paranoic and he doesnt trust them anymore

EDIT 2: The thing was so ridiculous that now #GuaidoChallenge is trending in Twitter, is just people posting pictures of they using hoodies to make fun of Jorge Rodriguez

I could see one of his generals overthrowing him. Not out of duty but as a career move.

First in Venezuela shouldn't be a prize, the real prize is she's second in the Western Hemisphere, second and only two years behind the first one in Uruguay, Jubba The Huttess, and ironically who was forced out of office when it was found he falsified and forged legal documents as a lawyer.

If I was running VOA Venezuela coverage would be all bible verses, financial sanctions, memes and veiled threats of helicopter rides of commies like Rubio's Tweets, but what do I know. Maybe DC sophisticates know that since both Hispanics and LGBTBBQWTF people are Oppressed Groups, covering the first transgender legislator will appeal to them or some shit. Even though they've never met any Hispanics or LGBTBBQWTF people they do have an expensive degree in Grievance Studies and have read many articles on intersectionality on Buzzfeed, the HuffPo etc.

To be honest we should be grateful that at least the VOA isn't pro Maduro at this point given the sort of people who work for it.

Mercenary was considered an honorable profession in classical Greece, and most western armed forces would be considered mercenaries by medieval standards.

Food production in the ancient world wasn't sufficient to sustain professional fighting forces to levels required for successful warfare. Being able to 'rent' professional soldiers allowed the city-states to both control military expenditure and keep their farmers in the fields, important since the winter in the Mediterranean was very short - too short for proper campaigning - and you could get two growing seasons in if your farmers weren't out playing soldier.

Yeah, Russian and probably Cuban mercs too, Chavez frequently sucked Fidel's dick and modeled a lot of Chavista shit after what Fidel did in Cuba. Not a bad idea though, these guys will be more than happy to murder anyone Maduro wants since they have no connection or attachment to this sad dumpster fire of a country, also creates plausible deniability like the "Russians on vacation" in Ukraine.

Cuban Mercs unlikely as Venezuela has nothing of value to pay them with, and they have been on the outs with Russia ever since the Soviet-legacy gas subsidy stopped. Wagner in particular also has a bit of a rep for sending guys who are almost out of contract into meatgrinders so they don't have pay out contract-completion bonuses.

Seriously, Maduro is an absolute crackhead. Why ignore a lot of the problems in these countries that became socialist?

Because they don't give a shit about these problems. To them, it's all a matter of supporting anything anti-American, which is why they completely ignore (or are unaware of) the "Crazy Rich Venezuleans"-isms of people with ties to the government. A few examples:

https://maduradas.com/te-la-traemos...me-mansion-de-roberto-e-rincon-en-eeuu-fotos/ An oil contractor with ties to the PDVSA, Roberto E. Rincón, was found guilty of money laundering. He also owns a fancy mansion in the United States of capitalism and freedom (of all places).

https://www.infobae.com/america/ven...rios-chavistas-y-sus-familias-en-el-exterior/ Family members of rich Chavinistas can here be seen living the sweet life. That includes the wife of the minister of Industries and National Production (and former vice president), Tareck El Aissami, who has faced allegations of money laundering and drug trafficking.

https://elcooperante.com/la-mansion...e-dolares-que-tiene-saab-en-dominicana-fotos/ The prosecutor general of Venezuela, Tarek William Saab, owns a 3,2 million dollar mansion in the Dominican Republic.

Show this to any Venezuela supporting self-proclaimed socialist, and they will most likely start to damage control and rationalize. Because it really shines light on the fact that they don't actually care about the poor as much as they care about supporting anything anti-American.

I think being the first one to not be a blatant criminal or balls out incompetent is a good #1.

It really shows how safe spacey these people are when they don't recognize this shit for what it is, excuse make for it & have the balls to proclaim that the U.S. is the sole cause of all the world's problems, trying to play world police & despite their alleged sabotage & control, is still worse economically, socially, humanely or otherwise than any given country on the map of the Middle East all in the same breath. They are the perfect blend of the garden variety anti-intellectual ghetto-dweller and the underachieving bourgeoisie, both severely out of touch with reality & unwilling to know better out of pride.

Besides being a crackhead, he's a deeply ignorant and dangerous dude. The guy doesn't have any education whatsoever.

Wikipedia said:
Beginning his working life as a bus driver, Maduro rose to become a trade union leader before being elected to the National Assembly in 2000. He was appointed to a number of positions within the Venezuelan government under Chávez, ultimately being made Foreign Minister in 2006. He was described during this time as the "most capable administrator and politician of Chávez's inner circle".

Maduro attended a public high school, the Liceo José Ávalos, in El Valle. His introduction to politics was when he became a member of his high school's student union. According to school records, Maduro never graduated from high school.

In 1979, Maduro was recognized as a person of interest by Venezuelan authorities in the kidnapping of William Niehous, an American employee of Owens-Illinois who was held hostage by leftist militants who would later become close to Hugo Chávez. He began his political career in the 1980s, by becoming an unofficial trade unionist representing the bus drivers of the Caracas Metro system. At 24 years of age, Maduro resided in Havana with other militants of leftist organizations in South America who had moved to Cuba in 1986, attending a one-year course at the Escuela Nacional de Cuadros Julio Antonio Mella, a centre of political education directed by the Union of Young Communists.

So this give you a glimpse of how capable were all the people orbiting Chavez before he died. A highschool dropout who only did a one year indoctrination course in Cuba became president of the country with the biggest reserve of crude oil in the Americas and STILL managed to run it into a cliff.

Castro would be SO proud.
